Shownotes Transcript

Kerry Burke, Eilidh Morrison and Reece Watt are all from Scotland and are members of the youth forum Haggeye. Haggeye first began in 2007 as part of RNIB Scotland. Its a place where young people from all over Scotland can meet to socialise and campaign on issues such as accessible transport, the need for more educational material in formats such as braille and audio and more.

We speak to the three youngsters about their involvement in Haggeye and their lives more generally. We ask for their thoughts in relation to education, jobs, relationships and The Scottish Youth Parliament, of which Kerry and Eilidh are members.

Presenter: Peter White Producer: Beth Hemmings
